All things Science

Vicki Jopson —

There are so many exciting Science opportunities in 2019. If your son is interested, please contact the HOD of Science, Mrs. Jopson. There are a few links below so you can find out about each opportunity.

Please ensure you go through Mrs. Jopson (jp@kingshigh.school.nz)  if you would like your son to enter because, in many cases, the school can only put forward a limited number of students, which means they would go through a selection process.
